‘A Slap in My Face’: LA Bar Owner Livid After City Lets Hollywood Studio Set Up Dining Tents

A viral video is making the rounds which perfectly captures the anger, frustration and contempt people have for our elected officials, who flagrantly break their own COVID-19 rules when it suits them — and, as you’ll see, grant well-connected ‘elites’ privileges as regular Americans continue to be devastated by what seems like a two-tiered set of lockdown restrictions.

In this latest example, the owner of the Pineapple Hill Grill & Saloon in Sherman Oaks, Angela M, offers heartbreaking commentary as she walks through her parking lot — revealing that while her own outdoor dining has been shut down due to heightened pandemic restrictions, a movie studio was granted permission to set up outdoor dining tents for a production.

Dominion Advisor Met With John Podesta Offering ‘Anything’ That Would Help Defeat Trump, According to Email Released by WikiLeaks

An email previously released by WikiLeaks reveals that a Dominion Voting advisor met with John Podesta during Hillary Clinton’s campaign to discuss ways that they could help to defeat Donald Trump.

In 2018, Dominion Voting announced that it had been acquired by its management team and Staple Street Capital, a New York-based private equity firm, who was being advised by Kirkland & Ellis LLP.

During Clinton’s campaign, according to an email chain released by WikiLeaks, Kirkland & Ellis LLP partner Kamran S. Bajwa met with John Podesta while offering “anything” to help defeat Donald Trump.

Podesta, at the time, was chair of Hillary Clinton’s 2016 U.S. presidential campaign.

Georgia Poll Observers Say They Were Effectively Told to Go Home

Authored by Zachary Stieber via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours)

Several poll observers in Georgia said under penalty of perjury that they were effectively told to go home on election night before ballot counting resumed for several hours with no observers present.

Republican poll observers Mitchell Harrison and Michelle Branton said in affidavits that at approximately 10:30 p.m. on Nov. 3 inside an absentee ballot counting room State Farm Arena, a woman shouted to everyone to stop working and return the following morning at 8:30 a.m.

“This lady had appeared through the night and Mitchell and I believed her to be the supervisor,” Branton wrote in an affidavit.

Chicago youth are at far higher risk of dying from gun violence than they are from COVID-19. That’s been the case since the start of the pandemic.

As of December 1, four Chicago youth have died from COVID but over 90 have died from gun violence. That’s 23 children dead from gun violence for every COVID death.

On November 5th, two days after the presidential election, an election clerk in Antrim County Michigan discovered that the total votes counted by election software DID NOT MATCH the printed tabulator tapes.

Wow!

Now a judge in Antrim county ordered a forensic audit of 22 Dominion Voting Systems machines in the state of Michigan.

Chief Medical Officer Says Canadians Who Refuse Vaccine Won’t Have “Freedom to Move Around”

Ontario’s Chief Medical Officer says that those who refuse to take the COVID vaccine won’t have “freedom to move around” and will have to continue to wear masks.

Williams acknowledged that “we can’t force someone to take a vaccine,” but when on to explain how people who didn’t take it would have their freedom of mobility severely restricted.

“What we can do is to say sometimes for access or ease of getting into certain settings, if you don’t have vaccination then you’re not allowed into that setting without other protection materials,” said Williams.

“What may be mandatory is proof of…vaccination in order to have latitude and freedom to move around…without wearing other types of personal protective equipment,” he added.

Williams also suggested that people would be prevented from entering certain settings without having been vaccinated if there was a “risk.”

As we previously highlighted, governments do not have to make the vaccine mandatory, they can simply make life unlivable for people who refuse to take the vaccine.

If bars, restaurants, cinemas, sports venues, airlines, employers and others all make the vaccination a mandatory condition of service, anyone who refuses to take it will be reduced to a personal form of de facto lockdown with their social lives and mobility completely stunted.

EU Parliament’s Latest Resolution on Poland’s Abortion Laws Highlights Threat of Rule-of-Law Mechanism

The European Parliament’s response to the abortion battle in Poland foreshadows what the EU could do if it gains the power to tie the European budget to the rule-of-law mechanism. Poland and Hungary have defended against rule-of-law sanctions with their veto, but if the EU succeeds, then both countries face the threat of Brussels dictating policy for their governments on immigration, traditional values, and judicial reform.

“The [rule-of-law] mechanism is neutral and applies to everybody in the same way. Everybody who respects the rule of law has nothing to fear of this mechanism,” Manfred Weber, the German head of the European People’s Party (EPP) group in the European Parliament, said when Poland and Hungary threatened to veto the EU budget and recovery plan.

Yet, in the “European Parliament resolution of Nov. 26, 2020 on the de facto ban on the right to abortion in Poland”, the same Weber and a majority of his EPP group called on the Council and the Commission to use the not-yet-existing rule-of-law mechanism and to withhold funds from the 2021-27 budget for Poland as long as the homeland of Saint John Paul II will not liberalize its abortion law.

France: Paris Plunges Into Chaos as Protesters Denounce New Security Law

Soaring coronavirus cases, a slumping economy, and continued social unrest plague France at the moment.

According to RT News, thousands of protesters flooded the street of Paris Saturday to denounce President Emmanuel Macron’s “Global Security” bill.

On Nov. 27, the French National Assembly approved the Global Security bill’s Article 24, which makes it illegal to distribute images or videos of police officers that can easily be identified.

The security bill has been criticized by activists and journalists, who warn the government is set to increase its surveillance tools and restrict rights of posting images and videos of police officers online. Journalists say this violates freedom of the press.

German Lawyers Initiate Class-Action Coronavirus Litigation

Story at-a-glance:

The German Corona Extra-Parliamentary Inquiry Committee, founded July 10, 2020, is leading an international effort to hold accountable those responsible for using fraudulent testing to engineer the appearance of a dangerous pandemic to implement economically devastating lockdowns

Pandemic measures have caused tremendous harm, killing more people than the virus itself by restricting routine medical care to people with acute and chronic health conditions that have nothing to do with COVID-19

While the governments of many nations have the same separation of power as the U.S., where you have separate legislative, judiciary and executive branches, we are now finding that this separation has been breached and nearly destroyed in most places

We now have plenty of data showing the lethality of SARS-CoV-2 is on par with the common flu and that the absolute risk of death is equivalent to the risk of dying in a car accident

The flaws of PCR testing have been capitalized upon to incite fear in order to benefit an agenda developed by private corporations, which include not only Big Tech companies, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and the Wellcome Trust, but also the World Health Organization, the United Nations and the World Economic Forum

Greek Court Gives Okay to Kick Out Non-Vaccinated Kids From Kindergartens

The ruling comes after a municipal government in Eastern Macedonia expelled four children whose parents refused vaccinations.

Hungary’s Orban Sticks to Guns on EU Spending Veto, Brussels Moves to Outmanoeuvre Budapest and Warsaw

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban is sticking to his guns over his power to veto the EU’s entire seven-year budget over a new ‘rule of law’ condition that would leave the door open for Brussels to blackmail conservative countries like Hungary and Poland.

Hungary and Poland sensationally blocked the European Union’s budget using their veto powers last month after a long-term political disagreement came to a head, namely whether the cash Brussels distributes to member states in the name of ‘solidarity’ should go to those who need it most, or be restricted to those members that do as EU leaders command.

UK Government: No Liability for Pfizer if Brits Are Harmed by COVID Vaccine

With the first COVID-19 vaccines already approved in the U.K. and almost ready to roll out, the U.K. Department of Health and Social Care has indemnified Pfizer of any liability, if someone were to be injured by the vaccine.

Independent reported that U.K. ministers have been busy the past few weeks changing laws so Pfizer and the other vaccine companies can’t be sued by patients who are harmed, or by families whose members might die from complications due to the vaccine.

Brits don’t need to even consider suing health staff or anyone else who delivers or works with the vaccine, either, because they, too, are now protected against any liability for harm. In a press conference, Pfizer’s managing director “refused to explain why the company needed an indemnity,” Independent reported.

Police have been accused of “intimidating” customers in pubs and arguing with staff over whether meals were substantial enough to allow patrons to buy drinks, as the UK sees a return of draconian lockdown policing.

Some 99 per cent of the country has been forced under the top two tiers. While pubs must close in Tier 3 unless they can operate as a takeaway, Britons can only drink in pubs in Tier 2 if they are eating a “substantial meal”. The issue has given rise to farcical discussions with ministers questioned over whether a scotch egg or a Cornish pasty will pass the government definition of a meal.

Caroline Glick: Biden and Israel’s Unsteady Right

In an interview with the New York Times Tuesday, presumptive President-elect Joe Biden reaffirmed his plan to return the US to the 2015 nuclear deal with Iran. The US will rescind its economic sanctions on Iran if it complies with the nuclear deal’s limitations on its nuclear activities. Once this happens, Biden said he will seek to negotiate a new, longer-term nuclear deal with Iran’s ayatollahs. The current deal expires in five years.

Biden insisted the goal of his policy is to prevent Iran from getting the bomb. But practically speaking, Biden’s policy guarantees Iran will develop a nuclear arsenal and the missiles to deliver them. This is true both because the nuclear deal will expire, and Iran will be free to build nuclear bombs as it likes in 2025, and because the 2015 nuclear deal has no effective enforcement mechanism.

The UN inspectors tasked with ensuring Iranian compliance are only permitted to enter civilian nuclear sites. Since Iran has sole authority to determine if a site is civilian or military, it can and has rendered the deal’s inspection regime a pathetic joke.

It goes without saying that Israel cannot accept this state of affairs. Just as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was compelled to oppose Barack Obama’s nuclear deal, so Israel has no choice but to strongly oppose Biden’s plans.

Unfortunately, Israel is currently incapable of clearly opposing Biden’s plan that will give the mullahs the means to carry out their plan to destroy the Jewish state. That is because currently, Israel doesn’t have one government. It has two governments pretending to be a unity government. But in practice, they disagree on everything, including how to handle Biden’s Iran policy and they pursue contrary policies on all issues…

A type of radiation that includes microwaves has been linked for the first time scientifically to Havana Syndrome, the mysterious illness that has struck American diplomats in China and Cuba.

In their report, the scientists pointed out that studies more than 50 years ago and Western and Soviet sources more recently “provide circumstantial support for this possible mechanism.”

Italian MEP Silvia Sardone: EU Policy Focuses Solely for the Welfare of Migrants

During an address at the European Parliament last week, Silvia Sardone, an Italian MEP for the populist League Party, argued that the EU’s top priority remains focused on the welfare — namely housing, education, and jobs — for illegal migrants who have somehow found their way into the European Union.

The EU recently revealed its new plan for the integration of migrants which focuses mainly on social inclusion projects and new housing for migrants. Within the European Parliament’s report of civil rights — which despite the spate of deadly Islamic terror attacks in the past few months that have left several dead and many others wounded — there was absolutely no mention terrorism. Instead, the EU’s report noted that the fight against racism and Islamophobia were much more pressing issues.

Some then traveled north to the French border and were smuggled by vehicle into France, thanks to human smugglers based in border towns, police said in a statement.

  1. Vaccinations of young children have been compulsory for few years and parents get their welfare cut off if they don’t comply. The worst parents for not complying are Muslims ,radical christians and s general nut bags. Cutting off the free money usually works well. The Muslims try and get out of it claiming vaccines are not halal as the chicken (actually egg) that died in producing the vaccine was not a halal killing.They used to get a religious exemption but not any more.

    Government decision: “Locked” the Greeks until they get the vaccine
    Newsroom
    email: info@pronews.gr

    According to secret polls conducted by the government, 70% of Greeks reject vaccines, especially Pfizer, for the side effects they may have.

    A relevant statement was made by the French President E. Macron who said about the vaccine: “Particularly careful about the vaccine of Pfizer-BioNTech mRNA technology. “There are still many things we do not know about this virus, but of course about the first vaccine to arrive.”

    At the same wavelength and Dr. Sucharit Bhakdi , a German scientist of Thai origin who commented on the vaccines: “I think it is absolutely dangerous. And I warn you: If you take the view that it is necessary then you will be led to your own destruction. ”
    Of course, the government is aware of this as well, in order to curb the “resistance” of those who have hesitations beyond the administrative fines and measures.

    Vaccination has already become mandatory for preschool / school-age children with the penalty of deletion, so that vaccination becomes essentially mandatory and decided to “lock” the country until Easter regardless of the course of the pandemic.

    Also on the subject, Professor I. Ioannidis has noted about the pandemic and the vaccine: “I do not know exactly how much a vaccine can offer now, if we reach this phase. It may be too late. I avoid it, of course. ”

    “It is absurd to confine people for more time each day indoors for an infection that spreads mainly indoors!” emphasizes in his interview Ioannis Ioannidis, Professor of Pathology, Research and Health Policy, Data Sciences and Statistics at Stanford University. regarding lockdown.
    If we consider that the cycle of infection and the onset of the disease (where it has indications, ie at about 1-2%) is 30 days, it means that we are at almost the same point, with no improvement with four “rows” having become ill despite lockdown.
    So the lockdown has failed solemnly, as it has failed in all European countries which have been forced to proceed with the removal of lockdowns.
    Thus, the government decided to take a series of measures until Easter (measures that will be announced gradually) with the predominance that the schools (high schools and lyceums) will remain closed, but also based on the current data in the hands of scientists and suggestions on the table:

    – The opening of retail is estimated to be safer to be done by the end of January. For department stores the shutters will remain lowered for an additional period.

    -For catering (cafes and restaurants) the estimates that reach Maximou are to postpone their opening to March, whenever a significant part of the community has been pressured to be vaccinated.

    For the Christmas holidays, no reason…
    -The bars even later, and yet the nightclubs are difficult to open before Easter.

    -As for the schools? Kindergartens and elementary schools are scheduled to open on January 7, as evidence shows that young children are relatively disciplined in protection measures.

    .-On the contrary, high school and high school students will continue their distance learning, until at least there is evidence of limited circulation of the coronavirus among adolescents. Maybe in the middle of spring.-In addition, there is currently no estimate of when citizens will be allowed to move from county to county.

    Note that pronews.gr had informed you that the measures would reach until Easter because until then the government believes that keeping the country closed will have led to the vaccination of about 2.5 million citizens.

    Had the measures been lifted earlier, no more than 1.5 million people would have been vaccinated. After all, the non-mandatory but also without the pressure of the pandemic flu vaccine for this year was made by 1 million citizens when last year and without the coronavirus they had done about 800,000.

    P.S
    Maximou is the office for the Prime Ministers.

  3. The Health ministers , pharmaceutical companies top ranking officials in favour of vaccs should be [redacted], and then the top justice officials for knowingly pushing the issue, fining and arresting people for no reason and when it holds no truth , not to mention the fatalities , long term effects and genetic ownership of individuals who accept the vaccination(s).
    I believe the justice system becomes nil and void once it renders itself as participant and supporting criminal intentions , in this case worldwide despite the fact that the cause has been proven contrary by the leaders in that field, namely virologists , and not just one , but thousands worldwide. Try The Barrington Declaration or Millions Against Medical Mandates (MAMM). I would be glad if all of you sign up against this NWO tyrannical event now taking place. Alternatively , when you are ready , [intemperate recommendation redacted] . Just a few will do to stop the rest . They know they are now marked.

  6. Yandex.Translate has apologized for incorrect examples of the use of the word Чеченский (“Chechen”).

    Earlier, Milan Mazaeva, a journalist from Grozny, noted that as an example of using this word, the service selects options with the mention of Chechen terrorists or bandits. The journalist tweeted a screenshot with two examples.

    Yandex apologized for the incident, noting that the examples of the use of the word were selected automatically, and not by the editor.

    “Some of the incorrect examples have already been removed, they should not appear again, but soon the rest should disappear as well,” said Yandex support.

  7. Boris will deploy armed cops and military to enforce vaccinations. Police are already using swarm tactics learned from Israel on old men and women to force them down to inject Gate’s poison. I fear we are about to see armed conflict on UK streets. The elite want this and the public terrified. This is all part of their genocidal plan. There will be no choice in this matter-vaccines will be made compulsory and Comrade Cressida’s thugs are relishing the prospect to cause harm. The Rule of Law is gone across UK. I spoke to several ex soldiers and they were forced to answer if they would be prepared to shoot their own citizens (or inject by force?). Those that hesitated suddenly found their careers on hold and even facing dismissal. Their goal is to set public against each other-those that have had the vaccine and those that will not dismissed as anti-vaccine loonies and tin foil hat wearers. As an ex Medic, I would not touch anything made by Gates, especially when, Hancock and co have been shown to have shares in corporations belonging to Gates, or taken bungs to support his crazy scheme to cull the population. Hundreds of senior physicians across the globe have spoken out, even after being threatened over their jobs. One nurse I know was open enough to me to state that many in the NHS know that the bureaucrats are eliminating the old and infirm on purpose. A family member who works in the NHS fainted when she realised what was going on but feared for her life, not just her job. We are in a time of consummate evil.

          My reply “9”. He should understand this number if I am right. And don’t mess with power you do not understand.

  8. I only recently came across two good sources on youtube for intelligent covid discussions and information from two doctors. ZDoggMD and Dr. Jay Bhattacharya. The US infection mortality rate is around 0.2-0.3 percent. 0-19 aged it is close to zero percent. Much higher over 70 years old.
